ASB just announced the prom theme= Candlelight At the Kasbah [originally named Arabian Nights]......blekh.
i'm still wearing my BCBG turquoise dress ^-^...

that was our theme last year! i forgot what this year's theme was though...they've narrowed it down to two possibilities smile.gif

sorry pics are big sad.gif







I bought two because they were both super cheap
the purple was 29.99 and white was 49.99 for sale.
Davids Bridal
Ive been dying trying to choose which one to wear,
but I decided on purple cause its only jr.prom -_O

im also thinkng bout cutting off the one strap
frm purple , to make it just tube. but i dont know.
proms so stressful haha

i actually like the purple one better. its much more unique with that one strap thing in the middle. i can also totally see you (or whoever wearing that dress) in this kind of hairstyle ^^,

LOL, that's my theme this year! tongue.gif

xxbearbear, supposedly, the more leg you show, the taller you look, lol. I'm 5'1" too and I've always worn shorts dresses because of that. happy.gif

yeah definitely the white

don't like the strap of the purple dress, odd location and unnecessary, the dress looks better without it

for hairstyle, half updo and loose wavy curls. You'll look like a Goddess <3 wub.gif

i bought my prom dress today! smile.gif

i first went to some dress store and they had the dress for about $120 but i reserved it and walked around and i went to windsor and saw the SAME thing for $50 so i got it although the $120 dress was a size 4, which fit me PERFECTLY and the $50 was a size 5. i figured it was SO worth saving $70 bucks.



i think it's really cute.
i'm kind of short so i wanted a short dress becuase if i bought a long dress i would just drag it on the floor.

i'm thinking a white jacket to match my date
with GOLD accessories.

what do you guys think?

i just got asked to go to a senior prom =D!! Never been to one in my life.. haha im only a junior. but do you think its better to get a BIG POOFY dress or a SLIM LONG dress?? i was looking at dresses and i like the poofy ones but im scared its too wedding like lol.. but the slim dress look better on me cause im really skinny.. i just don't like it because am short.. so which??

im like 5'1
and i weight at 98-100 pounds


Ugh I have the same problem....I wish I could wear long dresses//cinderella princess-like dresses but I feel like they make me look "stumpy" XD

I know I asked this before but I didn't get a reply and I'm going crazy thinking about prom shopping...any other tiny girls have recommendations as to where I can find prom dresses that would fit me or are close enough to my size that I can get hemmed without it looking too obvious?? My mom doesn't want me to go get it done at a shop cuz she says my grandma can do it if it's not too big of a difference... >_<

I'm 5'0 and I weigh 86 lb...

my prom's in three weeks! may 10th! haha excited (:

here's my dress.. i've worn it once for my uncle's wedding, but that was in socal.. away from everyone in norcal who goes to my school (:





hmm.. i feel a bit bad cause i'm going to prom with my glasses.. but i'm planning to take off my glasses for pictures... maybe hahaha sucks that my eye appointment is the day after my prom -.-; so no contact lenses for me. >.< would it really matter? lol i've browsed through a few pages here and no one's wearing glasses for their prom. =/ actually i might go without wearing my glasses and put my glasses in my purse or something so that i can use it when i need it.... any advice?
Onesweetypie

its like a pad that the boys would put inside their shoes
and it makes them look taller. It can be from 1-3 inches i think?

what type of hair styles would look good with a halter type dress?

^Definitely the second one. It's really cute.
The first one looks more like it would be for a formal outing rather than for prom.

i would be careful of online dresses if i were you. as pretty as they are.. they ahve some problems.. like not necessarily coming on time.. and then there's that thing of not necessarily looking good on you.

one of my friend, her dress came late so she wore something else and my other friend her dressed arrived, but it was like in the wrong color and it didn't look good on her as it did on the model.. so... yeah..

maybe have a backup?

but those dresses look beautiful smile.gif
